Mannan-binding lectin-associated serine protease-2 (EC3.4.21.104, MASP-2, MASP2, MBP-associated serine protease-2, mannose-binding lectin-associated serine protease-2, p100, mannan-binding lectin-associated serine peptidase 2) is an enzyme. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
Selective cleavage after Arg in complement component C2 (-Ser-Leu-Gly-Arg-Lys-Ile-Gln-Ile) and after Arg in complement component C4 (-Gly-Leu-Gln-Arg-Ala-Leu-Glu-Ile)
